What is difference between Ext3 and XFS file system?

For anything with higher capability, XFS tends to be faster. In general, Ext3 or Ext4 is better if an application uses a single read/write thread and small files, while XFS shines when an application uses multiple read/write threads and bigger files.

Does Windows 10 support XFS?

What’s the better filesystem ext4, JFS, XFS for Linux?

What’s the better filesystem EXT4, JFS, ReiserFS, XFS or ZFS for Linux? In computing, a file system (or filesystem) is used to control how data is stored and retrieved.

Is it safe to sync ext4 with XFS?

But synced data (ie: important writes) are 100% safe. Moreover, a specific bug exacerbating XFS data loss was corrected over 10 years ago. That bug apart, any delay allocation ready filesystem (ext4 and btrfs included) will lose a significant number or un-synched data in case of uncontroller poweroff.

Which is more prone to data loss ext3 or XFS?

EDIT: while some maintain that XFS is prone to data loss, this is simply not correct. Well, compared to ext3, XFS (and other filesystems supporting delayed allocation) can lose more un-synched data in case of uncontrolled poweroff.
